- polynomial 4y agoOh it's a great way, if you have the time. Therein lies the problem.
- danesparza 4y agoC'mon. That's only 4 papers an hour! :-)
- brudgers 4y agoThe average academic paper is about 12-14 pages including citations. So on average probably 50 pages an hour. With practice, that's entirely reasonable. Without practice it's a lot. Reading technical literature is a skill that develops over time. At first it goes slow. Then it gets normal. At first it might take an hour to read a 12 page paper. After a few months, fifteen minutes becomes enough to read a paper and make a cup of coffee.

- ReDeiPirati 4y ago+1 to this, plus how many of those papers are pure bullsh*t? In the last years, I saw lot of crap just for the sake of publishing in AI.
- reaperman 4y agoA lot of the latest high-performing models aren't making it to HN. I use paperswithcode by scanning major tasks for new models that come out #1 across multiple benchmarks and then reading those papers. BeIT-3 for example.
